Oak Steakhouse Opens In Old Town Alexandria

ALEXANDRIA, VA — There's a new dining option in Old Town North with the opening of Oak Steakhouse. The high-end steakhouse opened on Friday, July 12 at 901 North Saint Asaph Street.

Alexandria's new Oak Steakhouse is one of several run by Indigo Road Hospitality Group. Other locations are in Atlanta; Charleston South Carolina; Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina; and Nashville, Tennessee.

The Alexandria restaurant is led by Chef Joseph Conrad. He was most recently the executive sous chef at The Lafayette, a restaurant at DC's Hay Adams Hotel. The menu is centered around steaks made with certified Angus beef, with each meeting ten standards to maintain taste and tenderness. The restaurant also emphasizes local produce from Virginia farms and others around the U.S.

The restaurant is currently open for dinner. The menu starts off with appetizers like beer tartare (with pickled shallots, quail’s egg, walnut & black garlic purée and fresh horseradish) and roasted bone marrow (with bacon jam, Karma Farms pickled peppers, fresh horseradish, pickled mustard seed and grilled toast). The table can split sides like baked potatoes, white cheddar mac and Delta asparagus.

Main entrees include steak frites (butcher’s steak, beef fat fries, au poivre sauce and caramelized onion soubise), tuna steak, pork chops, burgers and of course, steaks. The steaks can be served with a selection of sauces or butters, along with other toppings for an additional cost.

Diners can also choose from a variety of cocktails, beers and wines. The wine list itself features over 200 bottles, some of which are displayed on a wine wall. As for desserts, save room for options like chocolate espresso cake (with salted caramel buttercream, pear star anise compote and malted maple ice cream) and dulce de leche and greek yogurt panna cotta (with chocolate granola streusel and raspberries).
